another sign that slimming down is big business. so, you know, the thing about "the biggest loser" i have an ocd with it. the main thing is exercise. they don't talk much about food but it must be a big part of it. i loved seeing the first lady on the show. there's a social pressure piece about these are people that were less valuable at this size and more valuable and better human beings at this size. how do we counter balance "let's move"? >> i think it's so important to understand people who can treat their body in a healthy fashion, if they can exercise and feel great about themselves and they demonstrate that, people have a huge respect no matter what your body type or size is if you are treating your body well. i think if you are doing those things that don't make you feel great, you are going to exude a different, you know, reception from different individuals. when you see someone exercising, that really gives, you know, the opportunity for people to respect you. >> unless you are a january new year's resolution people who g

care. >> so if you therefore failed to defund obama care, you would shut it down. let me show you something that the senator from your own state of south carolina lindsey graham said on the consequences of doing that. watch this. he says as much as i want to get rid of obama care, i'm not going to deny security payments to our seniors or funding to our military. so he, answering the same kind of question, said different from you. he's not willing to shut the government down because he's caring about the social security of seniors and he cares about our military. >> and so do i. and i assume the president does as well. so if we pass something out of the house that funds everything except obama care, is president obama willing to not pay social security and not pay the troops so he can have funding for a program that he admits is not ready and has unilaterally changed even though you said it was the law of the land and upheld by the supreme court. it's time to have the discussion. the big difficulty here and i hope you agree is the president has not been willing to e

over obama care. on friday he said he didn't want to cause the country to default. by sunday he was threatening default. i don't know exactly what they want but i think they are massively miscalculating. what's dangerous for the country is that combination of deep ideology and to some extent incompetence and inability to see the path forward could lead us to something really devastating which is the first default in american history. >> john, i feel like the reasons for democratic resistance, first of a all, democrats have been almost toeing the line, all of them have been towing the party line which is unique and extraordinary itself. i think that's not because of politics, it's because the president really sees this as a moment in history. if any negotiating is done over the debt ceiling or another government shutdown it sets a precedent. there's no way of stopping this from business as usual until kingdom come. >> alex, you're channeling the president. that's exactly what he thought coming out of t
